England recenly doing a test amphibians bus (Amphibious bus or called amfibus) that can run on water or land. Buses with the framework of the Volvo brand was able to walk on water by using 2 machines that can be driven up to 8 knots, and while on the ground, can be operated as usual and can reach speeds of up to 100 km / hour. The capacity of this amphibious bus passengers reached 50 people.

Modifications made were not easy because the price “Amfibus” reached £ 700,000 made in the Netherlands by the Dutch Amphibious Vehicles Transport BV (DATV). This amphibious bus will be used to accelerate the time where most people have moved to the ferry and then continue again by bus and now it is not necessary.

Maybe Vancouver's Translink should buy a few dozen of these to travel across False Creek?

Nothing revolutionary here. I mean, Toronto already has hippo buses.

Let's run these on Finch West in anticipation of the annual road washout near the reservoir.
